Women in Film

Sandra Bullcok

Movies:
The Proposal and
The Blind Side

Domestic Box Office: $163 million (
The Proposal) and $218 million (
The Blind Side)

To say Bullock has had a great year would be a grave injustice. This year’s queen of the box office shattered records with the feel-good/football hit
The Blind Side, which became the first female-led film to gross more than $200 million (a feat that has eluded Julia Roberts, Meryl Streep, Angelina Jolie, and Reese Witherspoon). More good news may be on the way: Bullock is nominated for two Golden Globes for Best Actress (Comedy for
The Proposal and Drama for
The Blind Side).
